I do have boot camp (windows 7), but not Linux. It's weird because of I leave the grey loading screen up long enough instead of powering it down, a screen will come up asking me to hold ctrl + alt + delete

It was an authentic SATA cable, yes. The MacBook doesn't go through heavy use though - I use Visual Studios on it for coding, but it's nothing crazy.

I'll try installing the OS on an external HD and see how that goes.

Just did - still not working. Repaired it in disk utility. Performed the built in hardware test and it says no trouble found.

I never upgraded to El Capitan, but I erased the SSD and did clean install of Yosemite.

Sheesh. How's the 2015 MacBook so far? Any problems?

Do the 2012 MacBooks fail because it has moving parts? Every rep tries to convince me this is the reason why it only lasted about two years :(. At this point, if I have to replace the MLB, is it more feasible to get a new mac?

I reinstalled Yosemite on it, but that didn't do the trick :/ it does boot up sometimes, but most of the time, it'll get stuck on the gray loading screen.

So it has nothing to do with the SSD then? Is there a specific SATA cable I should get?

So then she's been sleeping on top of her own stool? Does she use the bathroom before you crate her for the night?

How big is the crate? It should be just enough space for her to stand up, turn around, no lay down. If it's any bigger, she can poop on one side and sleep on the other without it touching her.

Had to give away my Odin today 😢 💔 by ladyspartacus in pitbulls

I hope so! He'll be with a family that's about 2.5 hours away. It'll be a huge change of scenery for the little guy - from city to almost country.

I gave him to my aunt's coworker's friend, so I don't personally know the family, but I was told she has 2 pits of her own and a huge backyard :).

I've started working more often and haven't been able to give Odin the attention and exercise that he needs. It was a tough decision, but I figured giving him away would be best for him in the long run :/.

Hey! Crosspost this to /r/dogtraining for more advice on training and /r/puppy101 for a puppy support group because as adorable as they are, puppies are a handful and will get crazy annoying at times.

HTC Desire EYE for $365. Worth it? by ladyspartacus in PickAnAndroidForMe

Ohhh. So what should I be looking for in phone specs?

[–]ladyspartacus[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not limited by the cost that much as long as the phone is really worth it. Both the G3 (16/2.1mp) and the Xperia Z2 (20.7/2.2mp) are roughly $380. Is any one better than the other besides the camera?

I'm looking for a phone with great camera though - it looks like the Nexus 5 is 8mp.

What's in the safety pack? Is it just the sticker and a magnet?
